A standardized classification of corneal topography after laser refractive surgery.
ith the expanding literature and discourse at professional meetings regarding the influence of corneal topography on outcomes following laser refractive surgery, the need for a universal, standardized classification system has become increasingly apparent. We have previously reported a seven-category topography classification schema for eyes following excimer laser pho-torefractive keratectomy ...
متن کاملCorneal Biomechanics in Ectatic Diseases: Refractive Surgery Implications
BACKGROUND Ectasia development occurs due to a chronic corneal biomechanical decompensation or weakness, resulting in stromal thinning and corneal protrusion. This leads to corneal steepening, increase in astigmatism, and irregularity. In corneal refractive surgery, the detection of mild forms of ectasia pre-operatively is essential to avoid post-operative progressive ectasia, which also depend...
متن کاملcorrelation between central corneal thickness and refractive indices in a laser refractive surgery population
purpose : to evaluate the correlation of central corneal thickness (cct) with refractive error and keratometry in a group of patients eligible for laser keratorefractive surgery, which may serve as a bias in studies on intraocular pressure (iop) measurement methods : in a cross sectional observational study, the right eyes of 340 patients who underwent laser keratorefractive surgery during the ...

متن کاملIOL Power Calculation after Corneal Refractive Surgery
PURPOSE To describe the different formulas that try to overcome the problem of calculating the intraocular lens (IOL) power in patients that underwent corneal refractive surgery (CRS). METHODS A Pubmed literature search review of all published articles, on keyword associated with IOL power calculation and corneal refractive surgery, as well as the reference lists of retrieved articles, was pe...
